It is the perfect title for those that enjoy games such as Empire Earth, Civilization, Sim City, etc. I've had tons of fun with this game and will continue to play it for months to come.
-
The DS once again proves the perfect platform for the real time strategy genre. [Sept 2007, p.88]
-
In terms of the game's central challenge, it excels at dividing the player's attention between ambitions for continuous expansion and the manual maintenance of the empire as it stands. [Sept 2007, p.97]
-
80For dedicated PC strategy nerds it might seem a little lightweight in comparison to what the desktop platform currently has to offer but, for accessible, deep, pocket-sized empire-building this is a game hard to fault.
-
80Basically, anybody looking to build and maintain an imperialistic empire on their Nintendo DS should get this game.
-
80Anno 1701 offers engrossing escapism and a refreshing alternative to more aggressive gaming themes. While it does nothing new for its genre and is firmly stuck in the days of the Amiga when god games were as popular the WWII FPS is today, it is still a great little title that deserves a huge chunk of your time.
-
One of the best strategy games released on DS, ANNO 1701 brings micro-management to the mainstream.
-
80A stunning little game which deserves a US release and fast. The developers have set the precedent on developing ports for the DS.
-
80An ideal choice for fans of the genre, and possibly a more surprising title for gamers who are curious.
-
An intuitive civilisation management game that works just as well on the DS as the PC. [Sept 2007, p.84]
-
Quite charming and colourful RTS, with a simple and accessible stylus-only control scheme and a fun multiplayer. Not really that much depth for hardened RTSites though. [Sept 2007, p.65]
-
75Anno 1701 offers a rich, portable strategy experience. It rests comfortably on well-worn games and gameplay mechanics, but fans of the genre should find what they're looking for.
-
70There are a couple of interface problems that mar this otherwise solid and entertaining DS title. [Aug 2007, p.117]

Dr.Cruel10A very high quality RTS simulation. Literally the state-of-the-art for Nintendo DS gaming in its genre. Very worthy of its international reputation.
